What to replace the usual toys for the baby: everyday items
A toy for a child is not just fun. This is his way of knowing the world, exploring his possibilities. Toys help a child develop physically and psychologically. Bright toys develop color perception, different textures of materials - touch, all kinds of rattles help the child to get acquainted with the world of sounds.
But the same toy is rarely played by a childlonger than 15-20 minutes. Due to the characteristics of a still fragile organism, he simply can not concentrate his attention for long. Therefore, often the parents are familiar with the following situation: the toys are full, but the child does not want to play them and requires new ones. But there is a way out - you can make toys for a kid from improvised items!
How to replace the usual toys for the baby?
In fact, a toy for a baby can becomeany item of everyday use. Another thing is that not all items are safe for him. Therefore, only if the child can not get injured, burned, pricked with an object or swallowed it, this item can be given to the child for play.
If there is little time and patience, then toys for your baby can be made by yourself, using improvised materials. For example, a wonderful rattle will come from a bag of croup. You just need to take a small piece of suitable fabric, sew a "pocket" out of it and fill it with some croup (not completely). It remains only to sew this "pocket" and the rattle is ready.
You can make several different bags: from different tissues, with different "fillers". Such toys not only sound differently, but also develop tactile sensations of the child.
For kids who already know how to crawl can arrange "Tunnel of adventure". Make it very simple. A long cardboard box (for example, from a refrigerator) inside and outside is glued with adhesive tape over all "seams". In the walls of the "tunnel" cut through small windows. Next, paint the box with bright colors that will be pleasing to the child.
In this "tunnel" you can play with the baby in hide and seek. Climbing one end of the tunnel, the kid crawls it and at the other end meets mom, who joyfully encases him in a hug. This game is especially recommended for babies who were born by caesarean section, because such a "tunnel" mimics the natural process of birth, which they have not experienced.
With the help of the usual household items can be arranged for the baby and developing mat. On the diaper tightly (!) Various materials are sewn: jeans, fur, foam rubber, metal chains - all that is at hand and, of course, it is safe for the child. It is necessary to select different in color and texture patches, make openable pockets, unfastening buttons. In the pockets you can put a variety of "noisy objects": bells, rustling paper, toy-pshchalki, etc.
Ready mat with pins that kidcan not open, attached to the rug on the floor of the nursery. Now the baby has room for a variety of activities. He can open and close pockets, touch and touch, watch and listen.
If the house has a pair of old unnecessary leather gloves, then you can make a whole puppet show. From the gloves "fingers" are cut off, then a funny face or figure is sewn or glued on each finger.
